The documentation index is the page WinHTTrack opens for generic Help and the one httrack.com links as "Documentation", and it presented twenty destinations as a flat bullet list with nothing to say which one a newcomer wants. It is now a task-grouped hub in the interface guide's idiom, with overview.html folded in as the lede and refreshed for 3.50, and Fred Cohen's guide under an Archive heading labelled as written for 3.10, keeping its URL. The chrome the hub needs is split out of guide.css into doc.css; guide.css keeps the platform switcher, tab strip and option entries. guide.html renders pixel-identically before and after the split at 1100px and 390px, in light and dark. overview.html, start.html and cmddoc.html become meta-refresh stubs, like the retired step pages. start.html was a window.open popup launcher and cmddoc.html has 404ed since #661 deleted it.

<h1>HTTrack documentation</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p class="lede">HTTrack copies a website to your disk, rewriting its links so the local copy
|
|
browses like the original. It can resume an interrupted download, update a mirror it made
|
|
earlier, mirror over HTTPS and through a proxy, save the crawl as a WARC archive, and report
|
|
what changed since last time. There is a Windows interface (WinHTTrack), one for Linux and
|
|
Unix (WebHTTrack), an Android app, and a command-line program on every platform.</p>

|
|
<dd>A tutorial covering the command line at length. It was written for release 3.10,
|
|
so the option list and the defaults it quotes have moved on: check anything specific
|
|
against the <a href="httrack.man.html">option reference</a>. Kept because it is still
|
|
a good long read, and because plenty of forum answers link to it.</dd>
